Behind a paywall.
They’re working on forcing him out. Surprise, surprise.

The timing of the report is intriguing. Sunday’s eye-popping 4,000-word Washington Post report on Biden corruption ties is, to my mind, more indication that a serious move is under way within the top ranks of the Democratic Party establishment to nudge President Joe Biden into bowing out of the 2024 presidential race. In the past month, we’ve seen a second Hunter Biden indictment, one that extensively details the tax evasion and lavish spending by the president’s son, a story that — however much the prosecutor labored to keep the president’s name out of it — cannot obscure that Hunter and other Bidens made millions by trading on the now-president’s political influence. We’ve further seen remarks by the Obama-whisperer, David Axelrod, to the effect that President Biden should consider bowing out of his reelection bid — and then more recently adding that the president’s record-low approval rating is “very, very dark” news for his campaign. And just this weekend, we found an unidentified source “familiar with [former President Barack Obama’s] thinking” telling the Wall Street Journal that Obama knows the presidential race is going to be “close,” “feels the Democrats very well could lose,” and worries that “the alternative” — Donald Trump — “is pretty dangerous for democracy.” This, mind you, was contemporaneous with Hunter Biden’s defying a subpoena for deposition testimony issued by two House committees, for which the House has signaled it will hold him in contempt, and with a full House vote to formally approve an impeachment investigation of the president. The timing of the Post’s report is thus intriguing. For the president, it will sting for several reasons. First, it’s the Post, a pillar of the Democratic administration’s Praetorian Guard — this is not just more brickbats hurled by House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R., Ky.) and the other Republicans investigating Biden-family influence-peddling. Second, the subject matter of the report goes back to the start of Joe Biden’s Senate career in the early Seventies (yes, the family business goes back decades), meaning the Post has intentionally dredged up unseemly details about Biden’s past that have been vaguely known for decades but that Biden must have figured were long forgotten. Third, the length of the report shows that the Post had to have spent weeks reporting its story; the paper could have dropped this report at any time, but it chose to do so now, when the president and his campaign are reeling. The full report is worth everyone’s time. To summarize, Joe and Jim Biden, as well as Jim’s wife, Sara, have long-standing relationships with legendary (and legendarily sleazy) plaintiff’s lawyer Richard (“Dickie”) Scruggs and his close associates in Mississippi Democratic circles, particularly Steve Patterson (a former head of the Mississippi Democratic Party and top aide to Biden’s friend and colleague, the late segregationist senator John Stennis [D., Miss.]), and a lawyer named Tim Balducci.

I think there are forces that want him out, but the FBI and DOJ are so corrupt that I don't think anything will happen. Maybe someone behind the scenes can turn enough of the corporate media against him.

If Obama tells the FBI he wants Biden out, he’s gone. The idea for this story didn’t happen in a vacuum. This is being pushed by outside forces.
They’re going to pull a bait and switch.

I thought these Hunter indictments were designed to sandbag his legal troubles and give Hunter a reason to avoid congressional hearings.

Why, "it's an ongoing investigation. The DOJ or my attorneys will not allow me to publicly discuss these matters."

Been the plan all along.

- get Trump as the nominee, let him burn the Republican Party to the ground while securing the nomination
- force out Biden
- insert younger, articulate candidate
- crush Trump in the GE

Michelle “big Mike” incoming. Only racist and misogynists would not vote for her. No one will question the legitimacy of the vote for fear of being called racist.

They can pull him at anytime. They have bylaws in their Charter for that. That’s what so many people don’t understand.
They’ll wait until Trump is the nominee, and then pull Biden for someone else.

I don't believe Big Mike really wants to run. Big Mike is loving the good life a little too much.

But who is that younger candidate? In 2020 they had a bunch of younger people that could barely get double digits in polling.

I don't disagree that Biden goes out the way he came in - last minute switcheroo due to the unelectability of the other candidates. But could Newsome really be the guy?

You really believe all this lawfare against Trump is designed to help him? You believe that is what the DC establishment thinks?

Get Trump as the nominee by Democrat lawfare but support a candidate (Ron) because Trump will be in jail because of Democrat lawfare.

You Ron Guys make no sense.
